I am a detail-oriented and highly adaptable professional with a strong background in administrative support, project management, business development, and client relationship management. Over the years, I have honed my ability to manage complex tasks, prioritize responsibilities, and ensure smooth operations within fast-paced environments. My experience spans across multiple industries, where I’ve developed a broad skill set in calendar management, data organization, expense tracking, and client communication.

With a degree in Computer Science from Niger Delta University, I bring both technical acumen and strong business communication skills to the table. I have cultivated advanced proficiency in Google Workspace, including Google Docs, Sheets, Calendar, and Gmail, as well as in Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, PowerPoint). These tools have enabled me to streamline workflow, track project progress, and ensure that teams remain aligned. Additionally, I have gained significant hands-on experience with project management tools like Trello, Asana, and ClickUp, which have allowed me to effectively organize tasks, meet deadlines, and manage project milestones.

As a Partnership Acquisition/Business Development Intern at EvolvateHR, I’ve gained valuable experience in supporting business development initiatives. I assist in managing calendars for key stakeholders, scheduling meetings, and ensuring follow-ups on important tasks. I also track expenses and help manage budgets for business development activities, all while utilizing Google Workspace to stay organized and efficient. My collaboration with the marketing team to improve lead management strategies and internal reporting processes has further enhanced my ability to think strategically and act proactively.

During my time as a Business Development Intern at Extern, I supported various project management functions, including organizing timelines, coordinating with stakeholders, and tracking project progress using tools like Trello. I was responsible for maintaining client records, preparing reports, and assisting with data entry tasks. This role helped me further develop my ability to maintain attention to detail and communicate effectively, ensuring all projects met their targets and deadlines.

Earlier in my career as a Sales Representative/Assistant at Kethan Geo-Consult Ltd., I gained experience in client relationship management, administrative support, and CRM system maintenance. I was responsible for coordinating meetings, preparing sales reports, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure the smooth flow of information.

Overall, my ability to adapt quickly to new challenges, prioritize tasks efficiently, and maintain strong professional relationships makes me an asset in any business environment. I bring a proactive, solution-oriented approach to my work and am committed to helping teams achieve their objectives with precision and care.
